1958 Facel Véga HK 500 CURVE
www.supercars.net


In the 10 years that the Facel Véga car adventure lasted (54-64, but the company was founded in 1939 already), they came up with this awesome car in 1958. It featured the famous Mopar OHV 360ci V8. Out of the 3300 Facels that were made in total, 750 copies were the HK500. In 1964, the final year of Facel Véga, they released a 4-door version of this car as well. The Facel Véga Excellence. Oh, and 426hemi, thanks for the pictures you made of this car.
